The Evil Dead

Five friends go up to a cabin in the woods, where they find unspeakable evil lurking in the forest. They find a tome called the “Necronomicon”, Book of the Dead, and the taped translation of the text. Once the tape is played, the evil is released. One by one, the teens are possessed. With only one remaining, it is up to him to survive the night and battle the evil dead.

It’s not that this is a bad film by any stretch of the imagination. It’s a pretty decent little horror flick with a story (friends trapped in an area with an unknown killer picking them off one at a time) that works very well. Hell, it’s a horror formula that works to this day. However when a film, whether it’s in the horror genre or not, has been built up so big, it’s bound to fall flat.
